Last Friday on March 15, we said goodbye to one of our long term students, Abdullah from Saudi Arabia. Abdullah comes from a small town in the southern region of the country. He was granted a full scholarship from his country to continue his education in United States. That alone tells you so much about him! He is a hardworking student; the kind of students we like at our EC San Francisco. We helped him to finally achieve the first step into college life!
Starting as a lower-level student, we are also proud to announce to the world that he scored 6.5 on his IELTS test. A score that granted him admission in a university in South Carolina! He’s starting this summer, and we are happy to send him off to his mini-vacation before the semester kicks off!
Here’s what Abdullah said about his experience when we asked him about it. “I first came to San Francisco with limited English. I enrolled with the best teachers and in a span of 24 weeks, I moved up to Advanced. My experience here, not only made me a better English speaker, but it also helped me grow as a person and an academic student. I scored 6.5 in my IELTS and was granted admission to the State University in South Carolina”
We will miss Abdullah, and we can’t wait to graduate more hardworking students who are eager to enroll in our English courses in San Francisco
